My Mother's Track in Life

By Kim, Boo-Jo


My mother's paths of life,
hidden in her bitter life,
wouldn't be seen to me.

My mother's paths of life,
a diary of her tough life,
wouldn't be touched by me.

My mother's bitter life,
my mother's tough life,
as being disclosed,
she prepares for a decreased
time in her life, holding her breath.

My mother's chagrined life,
a consequence of her accumulated experience,
wouldn't be accepted by me.
